Re: how far off the LANs for a 308
Lands?
A lot of guys start with the bullet touching the lands, that way you've got a known starting point, then back up from there if needed.
Also depends on the rifle, mag length, etc. A lot of factory rifles won't let you touch the lands and still be able to fit in the mag.
I start into the lands and get my load, then vary seating depth if needed to get more accuracy.
